    Neat. How does this guy look in a TFP Cyberverse display? Maybe hunched a bit so he's not so huge and can pass off as an Insecticon/Hardshell?

    It is difficult to portray Kickback hunching cos it got no articulation at the torso. I can only try to bend his knees a little more than usual and if I bend too much, then I'll end up having his face looking too much downwards.

    For hard shell, I can't be sure but it may be best to just wait for hasbro to release one as the head doesn't look quite the same and of course various part of the body even though they are both insecticons. Maybe Hasbro may do a voyager mold for hardshell for the future beast hunter season since it is beast theme? I do hope....

    Could anyone do a pic with Kickback with PRID Arcee for a size comparison?

    PRID Arcee's only a head shorter than the FE mold.

    This guy is amazing in soooooo many ways. The only QC issue I had on him is that his little pinchers were very loosely ball jointed. I just applied some Future and waiting for it to dry. Once that drys the figure will be perfect.

    Whoa, is he actually supporting FoC Jazz with the insect arm by itself? Wow, just another reason I want this damn figure, plus it gives me a use for my FoC Jazz now lol.

    I don't like his disc weapon. It doesn't look like it belongs to him.

    Well technically speaking it doesn't. Its the Gear Shredder from the game, anyone can use it.

    FYI you have the chest mistransformed, but yeah these pictures sold me on this guy. Looks pretty solid and isn't a blob of crap like the other FOC guys.

    I'm basing my judgment on how it looks on the figure itself. I haven't played the game. I don't even own it.

    Disappointed in Kickback thus far. I knew I wouldn't like the bug mode from the pics i'd seen but the bot mode just doesn't do anything for me. It seems to have a bunch of small flaws that add up. It may grow on me, but as of now this was the weakest of the wave 3 bots I have.

    I hope to get a few of this guy to use as the IDW Swarm, just kind of mush like 3 or 4 together. exciting to know that the arms are so strong, will be helpful to keep him/them together.

    Can't wait for this guy. All the pics on here look great. Hope we get the other 2 insecticons down the road.

    Transformed once to bug mode, looks nice but feels floopy. Bot mode though is solid gold, gorgeous purple, love the clear accessories. Wish I had bought more than just one from HTS. This is indeed a very nice surprise out of wave 3.

    After completely intending on skipping this fig, I'm now actively wanting him and will hunt him down when he shows up in retail.

    So weird.

    The newer mold Fall of Cybertron figures are looking even better than the first! (And yes, I really liked the other ones too. :wink: ) Now, I just need to get around to buying them...

    That seems to happen on these forums a lot :D  We probably do a better job selling figures for Hasbro than any advertisement they do (well... at least to adults...)

    ^ This.

    EDIT: can we get any high-res shots of the alt mode render from the package?
